Dear Emil,
I also wanted to welcome you to the Autism One.
By becoming an active participant you can support and inspire others. Your sharing experience can lift other parents to help them move forward on this path. Autism can be challenging and puzzling. You can make a difference; together we can effectively resolve issues in a collaborative manner by addressing questions and providing feedback.
My son Jordan has made remarkable progress so please don’t ever give up hope!
Feel free to share your thoughts, stories and wisdom for we are all in this together.
To quote, Brandi Snyder: “To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.”
Should you need any further assistance or information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Autism One International Inc. Chicago Liaison
Welcome, Emil. I'm sure people would be very interested to read anything about your experiences with autism in Romania. I hope you can find some help, comfort, info, and friendship here!
Hello Emil,
Let me extend to you my personal welcome to our AutismOne Social Network. AutismOne is now the “one-stop-shopping center” for information about autism. We have the annual conference in Chicago, AutismOne radio, the Elizabeth Birt Center for Autism Law and Advocacy and now the AutismOne Social Network (and more to come).
I notice that you’ve not made any entries into your profile. Remember, this is a social network. Part of the function of a social network is to meet and interact with others who have common interests. Of course autism is a common interest. But there is more than that. Individuals like to know about a person before becoming a “friend.” That’s where the profile comes in. So whenever you can find the time, please fill in some of the entries of your profile. To do that just click on “My User Menu” next to the Welcome area on the right. From the resulting menu click on “Edit My Profile” and you will be in business.
Helping you interact with others is one of the many things we can do for you. Now here’s something you can do for us. Every new community requires a good hard kick start to get going. We need you to help us with that. Log in on a regular basis and read the blogs and articles then write a blog yourself. It can be on any subject of interest to you, preferably with some relevance to autism but not necessarily. It can be short or long, whatever it takes for you to express your thoughts. If you have a question then ask it in a blog--people read then they respond. If you see something with which you agree or disagree then please add a comment with your thoughts. This is an open community designed to help and support. We like to hear all sides.
I am looking forward to reading your opinions in future blogs and/or articles.
With my best regards
Will Price, CFO

About Me
I love my son, I love the books I'm dealing with
(also available in English, too, here
http://www.ringingcedars.com/ - and quite "autistic" )
Well, I just like the tone of it (from the little I read on the site).
I don't like the standard medical opinion on autism,
which I dare to consider very pessimistic, and out of date
(I refer to what I hear on autism today in Romania).
My son and my friends.
we'll see - I'll try
I have always felt that you must use your intuition when it comes to any kind of therapy or treatments. I personally didn't have access to the biomedical worldwhen Jordan was young. He received occupational therapy and speech language services within our school district.
I followed through with their instructions at home and was consistent. I went to a vitamin shop and purchased vitamins for ADD also vitamins for the brain and nervious system.
He received my time and a lot of socializing with his peers. It worked for us, it wasn't easy we had up's and down's and plenty of meltdowns.
Lastly, Plenty of love and encouragement for his self-esteem...
